ProSoft MVI56-MCM Communication Module in stock

ProSoft MVI56-MCM is a classic Modbus communication module for Rockwell ControlLogix backplane. It acts as a serial Modbus gateway, supporting both Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII, and each of the two serial ports can be independently configured as master or slave.

It uses a 5000-word user data database for bidirectional data exchange between ControlLogix controller and Modbus instruments, PLCs, drives and meters. It is widely used in oil & gas, chemical, water treatment and power industries, and is a mainstream spare part for ControlLogix Modbus networking retrofit.
